The State Bank of Tennessee building is a historic building in Columbia, Tennessee, USA. It was built by Nathan Vaught from 1839 to 1840. [2] It was designed in the Greek Revival architectural style. [2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since November 2, 1978. [3]

The building was a branch of the Third Bank of Tennessee, established in 1838 to finance infrastructure projects and public schools. The branch's history was brief and troubled; it was robbed soon after it opened and it failed in 1843, after which the building held private tenants. [2]
